Planning a welcome home party for a special person. 

A world adventurer. 

I drew up the invitations by hand.
It took a few concentrated hours but everyone is doing the evite type invitations lately so I decided to be different & actually send invitations in the mail of all crazy things.

I created some cup sleeves from some salvaged note paper with colored lines but made the sleeves to have horizontal stripes rather than looking like note paper. I will have them all written on before being attached to the cups.

The menu is planned out.

I crafted some bunting from an old map.  I'm absolutely in love with it.
This idea came from various folks online including Please Note.

I think I'm getting a bit better at party planning, I still have lots to learn but at least things are going to look pretty!!
